      Clean the wound gently with saline, cooled boiled tap water, or drinkable tap water and apply an appropriate dressing with the right level of absorption for the amount of exudate the wound is producing, and monitor for signs of infection.

      Clean the area, ensure it’s dry around the wound, then apply a suitable Opti-Heal dressing depending on the level of exudate.

      Cool the burn under cooled boiled tap water or drinkable tap water, pat dry, and apply a burn-appropriate dressing like Opti-Heal Hydration Multi-Purpose Dressing, which provides a soothing hydrogel layer.

      Most Opti-Heal dressings can be worn for up to 7 days, but should be changed sooner if the dressing becomes saturated or displaced, or if signs of infection appear.

      Opti-Heal Silicone Scar Strips create a breathable, occlusive barrier that helps hydrate scar tissue, reducing redness, itchiness, and scar thickness over time.

      Opti-Heal Silicone Foam Dressings are multi-layer dressings with a breathable foam and silicone layer that manage exudate, protect wounds, and reduce pain during removal.
